From his very first day in law school Dustin Shunta knew he wanted to be a patent attorney. He spent his formative years tinkering with computers -- including building them and writing software -- then earned undergraduate degrees in computer science and electrical engineering. Now he specializes in filing and prosecuting patent applications for electrical and software inventions. "I love my work," says Dustin, who stays on top of new case law and other developments in the IP world. "On a regular basis inventors explain to me how cutting-edge technology works -- it is geek paradise."
